Who is Doctor Doom?

Doctor Doom is Victor von Doom, the armoured ruler of the small European country of Latveria and the Fantastic Four's greatest enemy. Stan Lee and Jack Kirby introduced him in Fantastic Four #5 in 1962, and Kirby's design — a steel mask, green hood and cloak — made him one of Marvel's most recognisable villains. Doom is both a scientist and a sorcerer, speaks of himself in the third person, and is written as a monarch who believes only he can save the world. Julian McMahon and Toby Kebbell played him in earlier films. Marvel announced in 2024 that Robert Downey Jr. would play him in Avengers: Doomsday, scheduled for December 2026.
